Chapter 246 Why Didn’t He Take Any Action?

"I promise to defeat Mordor." Chu Xinyun replied calmly.

The opponent is already at a disadvantage and is defeated. He does not need to explain too much. Whether he trusts him or not depends entirely on his own will.

Although he rescued them and indeed had plans to subdue them, if the other party refused to cooperate, he would have no choice but to grind them all to pieces.

"Sir, I want to know your name." General Skeleton asked.

"Smaug." Chu Xin did not announce his real name, and focused on playing the role of the card.

"If one day, you can make us respect and admire you wholeheartedly, we will also regard you as the King of Skeletons, and our bones will be at your disposal." The Skeleton General turned his head and glanced at the thousands of skeletons.

"This day will not be too far away." Chu Xin did not force others. After all, superficial surrender was meaningless, and he did not like false flattery.

The situation at this time was considered normal. The thousands of people across from him were not children who could easily be deceived. How could they have 100% trust and respect for Chu Xin in just a few dozen minutes.

The current effect can be achieved thanks to Chu Xin's combat power suppression and mouth attack.

Seeing that Chu Xin did not resort to any deception, the general and the skeletons breathed a sigh of relief.

After changing their mentality, the momentum exuded by the Skeleton Army is quietly changing, from hysteria with no way out to high morale with a glimpse of hope.

In fact, the source that prevents them from leaving and is imprisoned here is none other than their own curse.

But now, with the opportunity for revenge, although it is not a relief, at least there is a good hope, and the restraint on oneself is gradually transformed into the motivation to fight.

"If nothing else, thank you, Lord Smaug, for showing mercy." General Skeleton returned one code to another. It seemed that he was a very particular person during his lifetime.

Next, the skeleton army jumped into the lake and dived into the collapsed bottom.

After the fierce battle, they consumed a lot of energy, and their years of resentment were accumulated there, which could be used for efficient physical replenishment.

"Huh~"

Seeing the full moon hanging high in the sky, Chu Xin lay down leisurely.

Card text appears:

“Having a curious heart that is good at discovery and excavation will bring many adventures to the host;

Fighting fiercely with the skeleton giant underwater, and successfully subduing it with hard and soft power, showing his sophisticated experience;

Proficiency +5%, reaching 45%. "

Seeing that there was no reward, Chu Xin simply opened the gashapon machine.

Get a haircut!

Kaka~

A gashapon fell.

Guaranteed accumulated number of times +1, currently 2

Number of gashapons remaining: 3

The gashapon automatically opens: "[Unlimited Gold Coins] (Adhering to the greedy nature of dragons who love gold and silver jewelry, this special skill is extended. The host can obtain exclusive pure gold currency through battles. The more intense the battle, the higher the efficiency of exploding gold coins." The front of the gold coin is engraved with a skeleton dragon in relief, the back is printed with a map of Middle-earth, and the sides are designed with extremely precise spiral patterns. The gold coins are stored in the [Smaug] card)."

When Chu Xin saw this skill, he was startled subconsciously and couldn't help but marvel that the system had really considered all aspects.

"It's interesting. Now I won't be short of money from now on."

"Money is sometimes more effective than fighting and killing."

…

A few days later.

The recovered skeleton army broke out of the water and entered the former royal capital under the leadership of the general.

While sighing, they began to clean up the collapsed rock ruins.

All the weeds were pulled out, all the gravel was moved out, and the intact stones were left behind to free up the streets.

Then he merged into a skeleton giant, used the stones as building blocks, and reconstructed them based on vague memories.

Chu Xin also participated in this process.

Therefore, over a period of time, the skeleton people's senses and attitudes towards Chu Xin have undergone considerable changes, and they gradually no longer have any precautions and concerns.

"Don't worry about the palace for the time being. Only the true Emperor is qualified to rebuild it." The skeleton general looked up at the collapsed castle on the mountain.

Behind him, the ruins seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes.

The tall towers and pavilions are standing again, and the roads extending in all directions make it full of structural beauty.

The flower bed is once again covered with moist, fertile soil, and the seeds of flowers and plants are planted in it. The flowers will bloom in abundance next year.

In the streets and alleys, many skeletons are cleaning up dust and garbage, washing them with the clear water of Twilight Lake.

This scene is very harmonious and normal, except for the trivial matter that they are all skeletons.

Boom~boom~

There was a sound from the clock tower, and the hands of the huge clock stopped at four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Lord Smaug, it's time for training again." General Skeleton said to Chu Xin eagerly.

In an instant, all the skeletons in the city suddenly felt like they had been given a shot of vitality. They all put down their work with high morale and gathered in a disciplined manner on the vast grassland outside the city.

"You guys are really masochists~" Chu Xin said in a dumbfounded voice.

The so-called training is literal, and it is by no means a clash of bones.

In order to quickly adapt this complex skeleton army to the fighting style of the skeleton giant, Chu Xin spent these days personally teaching combat skills.

Well, it’s not just to find a suitable sparring bag for myself~

"Combined," the Skeleton General laughed, "I thought about it all night last night and finally got a glimpse of your weakness. Sir, please don't underestimate the enemy!"

Rumble~

The 30-meter-long skeleton giant swung a confident punch at Chu Xin.

A few minutes later.

More than three thousand skeletons collapsed on the ground exhausted and unable to move, and the general squatted in the corner and shut himself up.

"Not bad, I lasted fifteen seconds longer than yesterday." Chu Xin praised seriously.

"Your Excellency's strength is unpredictable. During our first battle, you probably didn't use all your strength, right?" General Skeleton asked.

Before Chu Xin could speak, he shook his head again and said, "Why are you asking for a blow? You can't beat us. You really can't beat us. How did he completely defeat us with just one blow?"

Look, the children were beaten silly~

Chu Xin was accustomed to what he experienced every day, and he was not worried that the skeleton general who became more and more courageous would really become autistic.

That night.

The skeleton army returned to the bottom of the lake as always.

Chu Xin didn't do anything cruel, so he didn't recover from his injuries. Instead, under Chu Xin's suggestion, he collectively absorbed the power of resentment and tempered the strength of his own bones in a guided manner.

General Skeleton and the others had not expected this at all. It was an approach they had never imagined.

But Chu Xin was a time traveler who had the basic knowledge of time travellers, so he immediately came up with this conjecture. When they tried it, it really worked!

Chu Xin also tried it, but unfortunately it couldn't be absorbed into the body.

Because those resentments are emanating from the capital of Arno and the Skeleton Legion itself. In common terms, they are identity binding.

"I have been in Middle-earth for a long time. I wonder if the gods have noticed it," Chu Xin, who was lying on the hilltop of the palace, pondered silently, "Gandalf and Saruman are the minor gods Maia, and there are the largest number of Maia. , Manwë, Ulmo, etc. are the main gods Valar, and there seems to be a group of goddesses called Veli."

"I vaguely remember that above the main god, there is an omniscient and omnipotent god of creation, just like the God in the Bible." Chu Xin racked his brains to search the depths of his memory. "He was the first to create the gods and live together. In the Eternal Hall, the great chorus movement was played, and the universe and the world were sung, and the world is the planet where Middle-earth is located."

As the memory was unearthed bit by bit, more details emerged one after another.

"Morgoth, the strongest fallen god, interrupted the chorus many times until the third big movement. The God of Creation alone created humans and elves. The dwarves seemed to be created privately by the God of Earth. They originally only had physical bodies. But the God of Creation gave the dwarves souls." Chu Xin began to sort out the origin of this plane. "Next, Vera and other gods entered the world, started to build it from scratch, and regarded it as their home. During this period , Morgoth completely exposed his ambition and directly went to war with his former compatriots. After several failures, he was exiled outside the universe. Then, Sauron inherited his master's ambition and continued to harm Middle-earth. For a fallen minor god, Manwe sent Several Maiyas of the same level went to deal with it."

Even though it is just a few scrawled sentences, it conveys the most thrilling and tragic eras of this plane in one stroke.

To cite one of the changes: some continents were sunk, and the originally flat world folded into a spherical shape, which has remained so to this day.

In comparison, from the beginning of Sauron's troubles to the present Third Age, it is simply children's play. No wonder the Valar ignored it, and this little splash is even less likely to attract the attention of the God of Creation.

"Hmm~~The name of the God of Creation seems to be...Eru Ilúvatar!" Chu Xin slowly raised his head and looked coldly at the vast forest on the side of the capital.

There is a touch of murderous intent.

There was the sound of dead branches and leaves being gently crushed.

The enemy you've been waiting for for a long time is finally here, and it's time to seriously blast the gold coins.

…

Susu!

Under the warm moonlight, the shadows of the trees were stretched long, like countless witches stretching out their greedy arms.

One after another, rickety figures sneaked quickly.

The ugly faces revealed their identities, the Orcs, a tribe of half-orcs from Mordor.

They all wore fine armor and were equipped with sharp weapons. Their eyes were filled with uncontrollable bloody rage. Even their body shape was considered outstanding among the tribe.

There are more than two hundred of them!

"As long as we complete this mission, the Demon Lord will reward us with endless wealth and honor," the Oak leader looked gloomily at Chu Xin, who was crawling on the top of the mountain. "Take back the treasures that belong to the Demon Lord and avenge the people who died in the battle." avenge."

He was also very aware of his men's fear and fear of Chu Xin, and then encouraged him, "There are nine Lord Ringwraiths fighting alongside us. Obviously, today is the anniversary of Smaug's death."

After saying that, nine dark war horses walked out quietly, proudly raising their terrifying heads.

But when their blood-red vision passed through the branches and leaves and caught a glimpse of Chu Xin's figure, they moved away with great difficulty, instinctively feeling fearful.

"Smaug today is just a fragile skeleton. You are all glorious warriors blessed by Lord Sauron. Charge forward and show your loyalty and bravery to Lord Sauron." The Witch King said unabashedly. .

The Oaks above did not realize their position at all, and immediately drew their weapons and rushed out of the forest, heading straight towards the royal capital.

"Ho ho ho!"

The nine Ringwraiths did not stare blankly, they spread out in a straight line and followed closely behind on devil horses.

The role of cannon fodder is to die, and to regain the Supreme Lord of the Rings, you have to get close to them, who are almost immortal.

In fact, the Ringwraiths arrived a few days ago and discovered that Chu Xin had obtained the Supreme Lord of the Rings.

If it had been anyone else, the Witch-King of Angmar would have appeared with his sword in hand to snatch them away, so there would be no delay.

But it was off the mark, and the target turned out to be Smaug, the skeletal dragon who had just wiped out his own power. His powerful performance instantly caused the Witch King and other Nazgul to enter a state of forced calm.

Therefore, the Witch King decided to play a safe hand and summoned all the elite Oaks in the surrounding area.

As long as you can successfully obtain the Supreme Lord of the Rings, this loss is insignificant!

"There's such a big movement, why didn't he take any action?" The Witch King of Angmar looked at Chu Xin, subconsciously feeling doubtful.

gurgling gurgling~

A large number of water bubbles suddenly burst out of the tranquil Duan Lake, causing ripples.

At this moment, the Oaks who only knew how to rush didn't notice it at all.

The next second.

Thousands of skeletons climbed onto the land carrying dilapidated weapons, and killed the Oaks one after another. The overwhelming numbers occupied a situation where there was no doubt that victory was inevitable.

"It's these ugly guys again. This time, we must defend the city," the Skeleton General shouted sharply, and quickly noticed the Witch King of Angmar. "This time, I must not lose!"

After saying that, he dragged his heavy sword and cut a bloody path through the Orcs, declaring war on the Witch King with practical actions.

"What's happening here?"

At the moment when he saw the bones and bones of thousands of troops, the Witch King was stunned. The other eight Nazgul also hurriedly reined in their horses and stopped, all confused.

Coincidentally, on the morning when they peeped, the Skeleton Army had not yet gotten up from the bottom of the lake and came ashore. There was only Chu Xin alone in the capital. In order not to alert the enemy, they did not stay nearby and knew nothing about the existence of the Skeleton Army.

"What should I do?" the Ringwraith adjutant Kohamul asked.

"Withdraw!" The Witch King of Angmar was extremely unwilling, but the defeat was one-sided. He had always pursued the principle of "keeping the green hills without worrying about having no firewood."

The nine Ring Spirits quickly turned the devil's horse around.

Keng——

Suddenly, a flash of black streaked through the air, ruthlessly piercing the horse under the Witch King of Angmar.

Poof!

A large amount of internal organs and blood burst out from the torn abdomen, and its four muscular legs went limp. It fell to the ground with a wailing cry, drawing a ravine on the slippery grass. After two more flops, it died. breath.

The Witch King jumped high into the air with great agility and strength, and landed smoothly without any damage.

He holds a silver sword in his right hand and a black iron chain hammer in his left hand.

The hood fell down, revealing a helmet with a ring of spikes, as if wearing a crown of thorns.

Apart from the scarlet eyes inside the helmet, there was only endless darkness and endless fear and oppression.

"I remember you with this weapon," the Witch King taunted coldly in a hoarse voice, "a ridiculous insect that I casually crushed to death."

Teng Teng Teng!

The Skeleton General did not reply. He accelerated his sprint without saying a word, pulled out the heavy sword inserted into the ground halfway, and aimed a life-threatening semicircle at the Witch King. (End of chapter)
